There’s no one-size-fits-all. From subtle enhancement to more dramatic results, we’ll help you choose a size and implant profile (low, moderate, high, or ultra-high) that compliments your frame and feels right for your lifestyle. Profiles affect how far the implant projects from your chest—and we’ll guide you to the one that creates the silhouette you’re after.

After your procedure, you will likely sleep for a few hours at home and then have a light meal. Some women will be pain-free and drive themselves to the office the next day, others with more muscle work may have more soreness or pressure-type discomfort for 3-5 days. We have a complete pain management program in place to ensure a more comfortable recovery process.
For patients seeking a more natural enhancement, Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation offers a safe and effective way to increase volume and improve breast contour.
Dr. Ditesheim will provide you with a prescription for pain medication to ease any discomfort following surgery. He encourages early movement and activity as soon as possible, beginning the next day. Easy exercise can be resumed by the second week. Sex is usually limited based on the level of discomfort, although each person is different. High-impact sports like water-skiing should be avoided for the first 6 weeks.
“...Dr. Ditesheim listened to my concerns and desired results, which he gave options to get there. He sincerely wanted me to be satisfied with the results. They did not try to sell me more than I needed...”
“...The size and form he shaped by the end is just perfect for my body, my needs, and it looks great! My desire was not to get bigger breasts but getting a nice shape and placing them where they used to be...”
“13 years ago, I went to Dr. Ditesheim in order to have breast augmentation surgery the first time. The results were incredible. So, I decided to go back in the fall of 2023 to receive a revision on my implants... the final results of the second surgery are amazing!”
If you’re dealing with uneven breasts, augmentation can help. We use custom implant placements and size adjustments to restore symmetry and create a more balanced, natural shape.
If your breasts have lost volume or begun to sag, we may recommend combining your augmentation with a breast lift. This approach restores both fullness and a more lifted, youthful shape—all in a single procedure.
Most patients find recovery smooth and manageable, especially with today’s advanced techniques.
Initial discomfort is minimal and manageable with medication. You’ll be up and moving within a day, and many patients return to light daily activities within the week.
Most restrictions are lifted, and you're likely cleared to return to full exercise. Your implants will begin to settle, and swelling will noticeably decrease.
You’ll start to see your implants settle into a more natural position, with a continued reduction in swelling. Your shape will begin to feel more like your own.
Your overall appearance continues to refine as the implants settle further. Any scarring starts to fade, and the results become softer and more natural.
Final results are fully visible—your shape feels like it’s always been yours. Scars continue to soften, and the outcome looks and feels more natural every day.

If you’re considering breast augmentation, there’s no better way to decide whether it’s the right choice for you than to talk to an experienced plastic surgeon. Your initial one-on-one consultation includes an implant sizing session as well as a chance to go over surgery details, pricing & financing, and anything else you want to know. Call or contact us online to get started.
If you’ve decided you’re ready to get breast augmentation from our Charlotte practice, you most likely have a lot of questions to ask. At Ditesheim Cosmetic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jeffrey A. Ditesheim will take the time to address all your concerns so you can feel comfortable about your decision to progress with cosmetic surgery.
If you’ve noticed a change in the size or shape of your breasts, especially after pregnancy or nursing, you may be a candidate for breast augmentation. The best candidates for breast enlargement should be in good health physically and mentally, and should have realistic expectations about their likely results.
During your consultation, Dr. Ditesheim will explain how to pick the perfect breast implants to meet your individual appearance goals, taking into account your natural anatomy and existing breast measurements. You’ll also get to try on implants right in our office so you can see how different sizes, shapes, and profiles will look on your body.
Implants can restore volume to breasts that look deflated for a fuller look, but won’t actually change the placement of your breasts. For women with significant drooping in the breasts, nipples that point downward, or an elongated breast shape, Dr. Ditesheim may recommend combining a breast lift with your augmentation.
Between the superior quality of today’s breast implants and the advances in modern-day surgical techniques, there’s never been a better time to enjoy breast augmentation results that look and feel more natural than ever before.
Any invasive surgery leaves scars behind, including breast augmentation. However, Dr. Ditesheim offers three options for discreet incision placement to ensure results look as scar-free as possible.
You’ll notice a difference in your figure immediately after surgery, although some amount of post-operative swelling may disguise your final results at first. As recovery progresses and swelling dissipates, your implants should settle into their final placement by about 1 to 3 months after surgery.
Prices for breast augmentation depend on many factors. You’ll receive an exact fee quote at your consultation. Fees include breast implants, surgical care, the facility, and anesthesia provided by an MD anesthesiologist. Financing is available, and we’ll go over your options at your personal consultation.
